top of this/ Police shot this kid, Yeah he had a gun on him but he hadn't even popped a clip/ It was hidden in his sock and shit/ I ain't saying he was a saint, he could have been the opposite/ The facts remains the same, it's not the Coppers prerogative/ They said he fired first, that he shot and hit.../ ..A police radio, but the bullet lodged in it wasn't his/ He shouldn't have been slain by them officers/ Witnesses said that they held him down while Coppers shot at him/ His family needed to be set straight about the events of the day/ So they went to the Fed station thought they could explain/ But they're still waiting for explanations the next day/ While local estates filled with revenge,resent and hate/ They held a peaceful protest to try and pressure the Jakes / Never thought it would have escalated and ended this way / Police hit a girl with a baton in the face / And any trace of peace there was vanished and erased / Police panicked and acted in an arrogant way / And any fear people had left for them vanished that day CHORUS: I predict a riot, I predict a riot ( That's what the people say ) The fire started in North but soon spread literally/ Newsreports, all you saw was kids filling the streets/ 2011 and life's just messy/ That's what I thought watching London burn live on telly/ I heard they started looting Hugo Boss in Sloane Square/ So if you a boss named Hugo you advised not to go there/ Certain man went in on this smashing and grabbing ting hard/ A guy got a bottle through his window while he sat in his yard/ How many youths are really in this to make a difference?/ And how many youths looting just 'cos they opportunistic?/ They smashed glass doors and wrecked stores in/ But Cameron didn't make it back 'till 11 the next morning/ it's spreading, wherever you bop there's mad pressure/ Not just London but Birmingham, Notts and Manchester/ Shit, I'm hearing Liverpool and Bristol too/ Lord knows what will happen when these youths bring their pistols through/ CHORUS: I predict a riot, I predict a riot ( That's what the people say ) Let me tell you something bout this system we're living in/ Where do you think these loots learnt pillaging?/ Crooked politician with a wicked grin/ Sanctified villains in positions of influence/ The police have acted like a gang for years/ Now youths bang on them like they bang on their peers/ What's changed is the lack of their fear/ Let me slow it down so the facts can become clear/ They marginalized the youth, its happened for years/ So no surprise they reacted like savage animals here/ What happens next? Well that's anybody's guess/ Utter lawlessness, get no response if you call the feds?/ Don't nobody see this is exactly what they want/ To give police justification to come and hunt us with guns/ So before all that we need to all fall back/ UK fall back ,UK FALL BACK!/ I can hear helicopters, I can hear sirens/ I can see fires, I can see violence/ So before all that, we need to all fall back/ UK FALL BACK, UK FALL BACK!/ CHORUS: I predict a riot, I predict a riot ( That's what the people say )
